Generally, paranoia is defined as a ridiculous yet irrational feeling....always remaining in your mind that people are after you or out to harm you. Naturally, this makes you think they are intruding or disturbing your landscape.
The typical end-result? You have doubts of virtually everyone.
If you gaze at the news spectrum, internet and social network chatter, and the hyped-up nature of society....there's a fair portion of people running rampant with this paranoia level.
As much as you can make the case that this is irrational...then what? There's no rehab or massive Doctor Phil-like character to take 100-million Americans in and straighten them out.
If you sat and watched six hours a day of network news, you sit there at 11 PM....unable to sleep, and having anxiety/stress that such-and-such political group, social group, etc....are out to get you. It affects your sleep, your view of neighbors and friends, and might even develop fears within your mind that the entire 'Old Testament' of the Bible might be linked up to Donald Trump.
The consequences of all of this? What happens six months or six years in the future...when you finally wake up? If I'd wasted seven or eight years of my life in this type of woke situation....I'd feel awful foolish having wasted so much of my life in this 'pit of despair'.
